@ Eratas: Kyuukai was willing to elecrocute himself (severely or not, at your choice) when he grabbed the rusty bars of the cage and attempted to charge through the trap to go save his family, friends and daughter. The bars house the wires and actually power the trap, and Kuu and Ange didn't expect him to try such a stunt (the trap still works though). He may or may not burn his hands or body after trying multiple times to break the cage before starting the trap, which will affect the way he injects the syringe into Laura or his preformance in later traps.

Probably unwillingly. Maybe they'll encounter a fork in the path, where each of them knows a password to go through one door, while they can't go through the other.

Kyuukai uses his password, the date of Koneko's activation and he has to say the one phrase he says the most to her ("You'll always be my precious KIT."), in one door, and as soon as he passes through it, the door closes behind him.

Ichika goes to another door, uses his password and phrase (don't know what), and goes in. The door closes behind him. There can be a third door for Irish, and his password and phrase could be whatever you'd like.

@ Meister: And I've just opened a new route! If you haven't seen my earlier posts, please do.

I feel like the luckiest otaku on earth!

Well, until she maybe/might/probably makes me dress like a catboy. Shudders*

Irish also has people he cares about in the hanging trap and he still thought of an alternative way to solving it. Granted, neither Kuu or Ange were expecting him to injure himself to do it and he thought of it logically (The clothes rip due to the fast descent so all he has to do is slow the descent down).

There are only three traps each for them. Kyuukai's is the caged bird trap, the carousel and then then the warehouse with Irish.

@ Rain - The hanging trap also looked lethal since the recorder said that the trap would release the person and snap their neck due to the g-force and (fake) nooses hanging around their neck. Hs just used it's the chains and his legs to his advantage since he didn't care about getting injured. He gets suspicious when he sees the "nooses" were brittle and easily broken so they couldn't have done anything even if he dropped one of them.

An alternative way to solve the Carousel trap for Kyuukai would be for him to save all of them at the cost of being stuck in his binds and pelted with rubber chickens. One of the "victims" could've helped him out later on when they escape the room at the cost of his ability to make kids

Ichika's traps resemble more of Daniel Rigg's and Adams traps since most of them don't injure the user.

@ Jak and Hawke - Ever consider writing Original fiction? I cam see stories like yours on the sci-fi (Jak's) or horror (Hawke's) archive for fictionpress.

@ Jak - Depends. If they're personals they would summon their IS, if not they would run away as fast as possible.

@ Stratos - A brother sister relationship won't work since the way she acted is anything but brother and sister. She acts the same way towards Ichika in canon and calling that as brotherly affection would look like an asspull. Do you have another theory?

Sorry for answering it here, internets so slow I can't message properly.

Let see... I could try listing them out:

- Outright Reject End (Reject, never to talk again... Not cool)
- The cliche "All-Close-Friends" End (Which I try to avoid at all costs)
- Clannad End (The best I could think of)
- Tragic Reject End (Highlander slugfest, won't make sense given her ties with Tsurugi)
- Back-To-Square-One End (All those interactions and developments gone to waste, at least they'll still be talking)

@ Rain - That's why Irish gets more interest from Kuu than the other two He's the only one who really doesn't care about getting hurt so he manages to solve traps without adhering to the rules of the game he's in.

I have a plan for joke test in the in final part: Canan is trapped on a machine like rack. To get her out he has to burn the one thing he cherishes the most: His nekomimi hentai collection! Would he do it? That is the question! By the way, all the trap does is remove her clothes but he doesn't know that.

@ Jak - Not all of us have internet fast enough to watch. Why don't you try posting a pic instead? I was just lucky I managed to load it.

@ Eratas: He'd do it in a heartbeat, since he's got duplicate copies of everything stored with the store owner in the case he was caught... Yeah, seriously.

But the limited edition stuff will be gone for a while, until he can order new copies to be printed for him. Which should take about a year or two to get the work dealt with and have the products shipped to him.

@ Rain - Why hesitate? He's got the real thing right there Anyway, how do you think the story should end? Things back to the status quo or Kyuukai getting scarred for life? Ichika is forced to go on dates with everyone in his harem while Irish gets even more angry at the Tabane bloodline but he gets a new admirer

And no, it can't be a sex ending! Considering Kyuukai and Irish just spent a lot of their time making sure they DON'T get raped.

Four-man Squad: Two Battle-Armors(Inami and Tsurugi), Two ISes(Cecilia and Kirin)

I'd run with that. Just that I want to come up with something aside from the usual "Let's all be close friends with him".

Or maybe I could run with the other kind: "Whoever he chooses, the rest must support his decision and his relationship with the one he chose". I think that would run better... Hopefully.

And before you ask... Yes, Kirin Arakaki will eventually look up to him as well. :P
